Rules
Exclude specific pages, markets, or customers from protection
Overview
Rules let you control where and for whom protection is active. You can exclude specific products, collections, markets, or customer groups from protection. Rules require the Premium plan.
Page Filtering
Page filtering lets you exclude specific products or collections from protection. This is useful when you want certain pages to remain unprotected — for example, a product with images you want customers to share freely.
Enabling Page Filtering
- Go to Settings > Rules
- Toggle on Enable page filter
- Click Save
Excluding Products
- In the Excluded Products section, click Add Products
- Use the Shopify product picker to select products
- Selected products appear in the exclusion list
Protection will be completely disabled on these product pages.
Excluding Collections
- In the Excluded Collections section, click Add Collections
- Select the collections to exclude
All products in excluded collections will be unprotected — both on the collection page and on individual product pages within that collection.
Removing Exclusions
Click the X icon next to any product or collection to remove it from the exclusion list and restore protection.
Market Filter
If your store serves multiple Shopify Markets (e.g., different countries or regions), you can limit protection to specific markets.
Options
| Setting | Behavior |
|---|---|
| All markets | Protection is active in every market (default) |
| Specific markets | Protection only applies in the markets you select |
Configuring Market Filtering
- Go to Settings > Rules
- Under Market Filter, select Specific markets
- Click Select markets and choose the markets where protection should be active
- Click Save
Visitors browsing from markets not in your list will not see any protection.
Customer Rules
Control which customers are excluded from protection. This is helpful when you want to protect content from anonymous visitors but allow logged-in customers or wholesale buyers full access.
Options
| Setting | Behavior |
|---|---|
| All visitors | Protection applies to everyone (default) |
| Exclude logged-in customers | Protection is disabled for any logged-in customer |
| Exclude customers with specific tags | Protection is disabled for customers with matching tags |
Using Customer Tags
- Go to Settings > Rules
- Under Customer Rules, select Exclude customers with specific tags
- Enter tags separated by commas (e.g.,
wholesale, vip, partner) - Click Save
Tags are case-insensitive — Wholesale and wholesale are treated the same.
